Willow's Lunch

I have been a real grump today. Humidty+lack of sleep+screaming baby+naughty 3 year old = mommy meltdown. Only thing that I was happy about was getting to use my newish cutter today for Willow's lunch (lol that's when you know you're bento-addicted!). I made elephant ham and cheese sandwiches (which look kinda greenish in this pic) combined with some fruit - pineapples, and veggies - cucumbers and carrots, which I was pleasantly surprised to see her eat first!

thank you! I am following you back! I actually used nori (seaweed) for the black accents. Easy to find at Asian markets. Lettuce/cucumber works just as well if you have a hole punch and scissors!

These are awesome! We have a teeny bit of an elephant obsession around my house. Where did you find the sandwich cutter? B might need it! ;o)

Kelly Polizzi said...

Thanks Shannon! I got the cutter in a set of three from Michael's. There was an elephant, monkey and tiger.
